"Could potentially consume half as much power" does not equal "consumes less power". It's marketing spin for "we're optimistic at the minute".]]>May 22nd 2009 4:41AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/May 21st 2009 8:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/May 21st 2009 9:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/May 21st 2009 8:12AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/May 21st 2009 1:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/May 21st 2009 8:15AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/May 21st 2009 8:45AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/
Why do they block the vents? They might do it to keep dust out but, it also keeps the heat in so stupid idea. I can always buy a can of air. ]]>May 21st 2009 9:01AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/Where the hell do you live, Planet Spaceball? :-)]]>May 21st 2009 9:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/You don't now what a can of air is?

A) They typically run at 10-30kV
B) The negative (ionizing) electrode can run up to 200C
C) They tend to produce large magnetic fields

If all of these have been overcome then i say good luck to them.]]>May 21st 2009 12:40PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/
The real way to make it actually cooler on your lap is not to have a better cooling system, but to actually generate less heat, which means making it more efficient or just plain less powerful.]]>May 21st 2009 12:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/May 21st 2009 1:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/May 21st 2009 2:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/May 21st 2009 6:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/http://www.engadget.com/2009/05/21/ionic-cooling-system-adapted-for-laptop-use-scalded-laps-cautio/
